Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) & Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) Visuals

This document describes the components of Functional Behavior Assessment and Behavior Intervention Plan. This product includes:

1. A visual of the FBA process which includes why students engage in problematic behavior, how to identify the target behavior, information collected as part of the FBA (time, setting, antecedent, behavior, consequence), types of data collected, common antecedents, and common functions.
2. Defining Consequences that Maintain Problem Behavior - A flowchart of how to determine the function of a behavior. This is taken directly from an amazing resource that is my go-to reference (O'Neill, Albin, Storey, Horner, & Sprague, 2015).
3. Two Visuals of the Behavior Pathway Model. The first visual includes what information is examined as part of the FBA and the second visual contains how to match the BIP to the FBA.
4. Examples of Matching Teaching Interventions with Replacement Behaviors that Serve the Same Function - Another visual that I LOVE which is taken directly from an amazing resource that is my go-to reference (O'Neill, Albin, Storey, Horner, & Sprague, 2015).

How do I use this? I reference these visuals when I am discussing behavior intervention plans or functional behavior assessments with parents. My philosophy is to have parents as educated on the special education processes as possible so that they can be active participants. I also reference these when working with the team as we are going through the FBA/BIP process. It helps us double check that we are being thorough!
